The next ice age “has now been delayed indefinitely.” At least that’s what the National Climate Assessment and Development Advisory Committee wants you to think. In a new report, the committee says that — assuming the earth was largely controlled by natural factors — the next ice age would arrive within the next 1,500 years. But thanks to you, oh noble polluter, that time stamp is now indefinite.

As usual, the report contained some irony. When discussing the “scientists'” warning of a coming ice age in the 1970s, the authors went on the defensive: “An enduring myth about climate science is that in the 1970s the climate science community was predicting ‘global cooling‘ and an ‘imminent’ ice age.” Well, there was in fact strong agreement in the scientific community about an imminent ice age. The paper followed up by casting blame on their best advocates: “The popular press … carried a number of articles about the cooling climate at that time.” Yes, you read that right — they’re accusing the mainstream media of hyping the situation. Thank goodness we don’t have that problem now!

The paper predicts temperatures will warm another 3 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit by the end of the century. As you could guess, they find a solution through population control and lower emissions.

In short, this is just another report based on big lies, such as Obama’s claim in his SOTU address that the “12 hottest years on record have all come in the last 15.” Their end game is eradication of a free market via big-government control by deception — all to “save the planet,” of course.

Speaking of global warming causing problems, at 1425 EST, an enormous asteroid (2012 DA14) will be passing closer to earth than any in recorded history — passing at 27,600 kilometers, inside the geosynchronous orbit of communication satellites. The effect on those satellites is unknown as NASA has never recorded such a close pass. It’s about 50 meters in diameter and traveling at 13k/sec. Its trajectory is north to south.

The nation’s total violent crime rate hit an all-time high in 1991. Thereafter, it declined 18 of the next 20 years, 49 percent overall, to a 41-year low in 2011. That included a 52 percent decrease in the nation’s murder rate, to a 48-year low, nearly the lowest point in U.S. history. The FBI has preliminarily reported that in the first half of 2012, the murder rate dropped another 2.7 percent.1
